The subject of Danièle Huillet and Jean-Marie Straub’s Der Tod des Empedokles (The Death of Empedocles, 1987) is the Greek pre-Socratic philosopher Empedocles (c. 490 BC – 430 BC), who lived in the Greek colony of Agrigentum in Sicily. His theories are mentioned in several of Plato’s dialogues. He maintained that all matter is made up of four irreducible elements: water, earth, air and fire. A mystic and a poet, he is considered to be the founder of classical rhetoric. He is also thought to be the last Greek philosopher to write in verse; two fragments of his works survive: Katharmoi (Purifications) and Peri Phuseôs (On Nature). An advocate of democracy, he came into conflict with his fellow citizens of Agrigentum and, as result, was banished with his young disciple, Pausanius. When he was asked to return, he preferred to commit suicide by throwing himself into the active volcano at Mount Aetna.
The German writer Friedrich Hölderlin wrote two versions of Der Tod des Empedokles in 1798 and 1800, and a final third version in 1820, all three ultimately unfinished. They were conceived as five-act tragedies and all three differ in plot. According to Michael Hamburger, Hölderlin’s English-language translator,
the main reason why Hölderlin finished no version of the play must be that he remained too closely identified with Empedocles, at the very period in his life when his own view of the poet as philosopher, prophet and priest – and as tragic hero – was subject to perpetual crisis and re-examination.
Huillet-Straub’s The Death of Empedocles is based on Hölderlin’s first version (the longest of the three), whereas Black Sin is based on the third version.
不要忘了你是谁，从哪里来，也不要被此所束缚
8/10.
TV版动画11-14集的合辑篇，主要内容就是三个主角第一次相遇
元电影这层处理地很有意思。双线叙事增添了不少乐趣，可惜没多大关联。
看完这个电影，我决定听室友的建议去看电视剧了！！！
虽然珠世小姐帮我治疗过了，但伤并没有痊愈。
一个作品被多次分割成不同的作品片段来播放，真会赚钱啊orz。
鼓屋的疯狂感还可以更强，鼓鬼怎么可以在一个房间里就被彻底杀掉了呢？
6.5/10 " 距上次在影院里看唐顿庄园故事的银幕首秀已经过去了三个年头，这批集结在一起的最具代表性的英国演员们在这部电影续集中仍然保持着他/她们的独有的魅力与风韵，并通过接踵而至的""人生大事""赋予了这段极具时代精神的本土家族史诗一种更绵长的生命力。片中开篇的婚礼与结尾的丧葬形成了奇妙的对照关系，一面是告别欢乐宴席的坦然，一面是迎接忧愁寂寞的释怀。在庄园建筑悠长历史投射的阴翳之下，这份""人情""显得温暖而珍贵。
2022 年 6 月初，因为疫情而关闭一个多月的北京影院刚刚开业，在影院看到这样的电影，真的感慨万千。那些生活中的美好如此脆弱和易逝，但我们仍然要努力去追求那些小小的美好。（英国演员真的是人均莎翁剧备选啊）
从婚礼到葬礼，默片到有声电影，时代的眼泪。
啥时候流行的这种把TV攒几集出个电影的。。。
和刘亦濛在私影看的第十八部，还是那个旋律，老太太竟然去世了😭
我个人十分喜欢本次故事中融入的电影元素，无论是对默片时代的致敬，还是对上世纪片场工作的种种还原，都能让影迷感到一种通过将艺术形式融入作品内容而表达出的谦逊态度。作为这个故事可能的终章，本作纵然在故事结构与制作上都有偷工减料之嫌，但其长久坚持的对于历史的态度——以人与情为本也足以为它赢得一份喝彩
不要忘了你是谁，从哪里来，也不要被此所束缚
唐顿电影版续到“走进新时代”便是最好的结束，请不要再续了。当时代的喧嚣和嘈杂一股脑涌入原本祥和宁静的庄园，我们原本熟悉的味道正在慢慢消散；老夫人临走前那句“Stop that noise…”真是令人沉默，趋势不可阻挡，家族人来人往，如何维持往日的荣光，Mary 坚毅的脸上似乎已经写好了答案。
迈入三十年代
可以叫《唐家屯拥有钢铁般意志的女人们和她们只会哭哭啼啼的男人们》。女性角色个个出彩，男性角色没有存在感
以下是观影札记:
每一集新的都能翻出花来，又是感动满满。希望可以继续拍下去拍到Mary变老。
